Is Made to Order resin?

They can be metal too, but the majority is resin. You'll have to pay attention to the item description when they go up on Saturday, because the article doesn't mention it.

Those Nobz sculpts are so cool, as are the Warbosses. Hell, so are the Meganobz and Thraka. Even after having painted a squad of them I still want to do more. So drat good. It would be so much easier to have done them in resin than metal.

They also seem to be clear, which is a bit unusual for games-workshop dice sets? Then again I don't like red pips in general, they look pretty bad on the old world orc and goblin decide too.

So what's the deal with fortifications? Are there any specific rules for them? I can't seem to find anything; what are they actually good/used for?

All I know guard have an Aegis Defense Line fortification that you can include in your list, and tournaments don't allow fortifications. A google search gives this community post https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/12/05/the-aegis-defence-line-stands-firm-in-our-battle-of-the-barricades/ So uh Tau, space marines, and eldar have something similar that you can look up in their rules index I guess.

Are those still considered legal for tournament play, provided it's on the right size base?

They don’t actually have any special rules. You place them like you would any other unit in your army. Usually they have something on their datasheet that makes them worthwhile—the chaos Noctilith Crown was fun to run alongside a big blob of cultists or tanks until they disemboweled the index.

FYI, I've ordered 3 separate MTO and got all my stuff within a week or two max each time. I believe they already have a conservative amount of stock made, if you order early you'll get shipped right away from that. If it is very popular and you order late it will take the full production time.

I’ve come to accept that ordering things from Britain is fraught with peril and delay after half a dozen order fuckups from 2000 AD so as long as it eventually shows up I’ll be happy. I hope they do that again for other old models, I swear there used to be a 40k snotling horde that came as a swarm on one or two bases but I can’t find any evidence of that and might just be remembering an old fantasy model
